Titan Comics and
Statix Press are thrilled to announce Snowpiercer:
Extinction, a brand-new prequel graphic novel set before the extinction incident that led to the events
of the original Snowpiercer graphic novel trilogy.

Titan’s next installment in the critically-acclaimed and
award-winning Snowpiercer graphic
novel saga will be released in 2019, written by Matz (Triggerman, The Assignment), with art by the original Snowpiercer graphic novel artist Jean-Marc Rochette.
Debuting alongside Titan’s new graphic novel, the Snowpiercer franchise will also welcome the hotly-anticipated TV
adaptation.

Set more than seven
years after the world has become a frozen wasteland, the TV adaptation of Snowpiercer centers on the remnants of
humanity who inhabit a gigantic, perpetually-moving train that circles the
globe. Class warfare, social injustice and the politics of survival are
questioned in this riveting television adaptation. The TV series, starring
Jennifer Connelly (A Beautiful Mind)
and Daveed Diggs (Hamilton, Black-ish),
will air in the U.S. on TNT and internationally on Netflix (excluding China).

The series is a co-production of Tomorrow
Studios (a partnership between Marty
Adelstein and ITV Studios) and Turner’s Studio T, along with CJ
Entertainment. The series is
executive produced by Tomorrow Studios’ Marty Adelstein (Hanna, Cowboy Bebop) and Becky Clements (Good Behavior, Hanna, Last Man Standing). Showrunner Graeme Manson (Orphan Black), Scott Derrickson (Doctor Strange) and the original film’s
Bong Joon Ho, Park Chan-wook, Lee Tae-hun and Dooho Choi are also executive
producers on the series.

Matz aka Alexis Nolent is a French
writer. He writes scripts for videogames and has also written a novel and,
under the Matz pen-name, a number of comics. His graphic novel, Du Plomb Dans
La Tete, AKA Headshot was adapted into the 2012 film, Bullet to the Head.
Recently, his graphic novel work with visionary director of The Warriors,
Walter Hill, has been translated by Hard Case Crime – Triggerman and The
Assignment.

Jean-Marc Rochette is a painter, illustrator and cartoonist. He has worked
across a variety of projects and genres, from science fiction comics to
children’s cartoons – and including adaptations of Voltaire’s Candide and
Homer’s Odyssey – but Snowpiercer remains the work by which he is most
popularly known.
